Real Estate Crowdfunding
Real estate crowdfunding is probably the most popular and well-developed crowdfunding type in Europe. With Equity crowdfunding, people can start building real estate investment portfolios starting with a few hundred Euros. With real estate crowdfunding people can buy shares in real estate projects like residential houses, rental properties you name it, and gain income from real estate leases or sell.
Crowdfunding also offers the possibility to earn fixed incomes from real estate by providing loans secured by real estate. Below you will find a list of all main real estate crowdfunding platforms in Europe and a description of key players by country.
